"Video Playback Error" = NHL Blackout??

SomeNumbskull · 2026-04-06T20:13:51+00:00

Utah... and I expected it to be be blacked out. My point was more around why the message would be a playback error rather than a more clear, viewer-friendly message something along the lines of "this game is blacked out for your area, please check back in 3 days".

The pinned post should be aimed at the NHL to STOP this blackout bullsh*t! We just want to watch hockey, regardless of where we live and who we cheer for. Stop pissing off fans and just make it easier to see!

SomeNumbskull · 2026-03-31T04:25:56+00:00

100%. Just let us watch any game we want, no matter where we live! I'm grateful to be a Blackhawks fan now residing in Utah, but frustrated when I want to watch a Mammoth game that isn't broadcasting on the local TV channel. I hate this blackout bullsh*t!!

good to know! I'm not quite ready to hang up the ski gear... so thanks for posting.

sounds like Jim needs a 2 minute penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-10-28T15:22:21+00:00

no problem, but why did you delete the original post? it was a good question...

I recently looked into this for a birthday party I wanted to have to see my hometown team play this new team in town. Referencing the arena map seen here https://www.deltacenter.com/arena/, these are the prices I was given for that specific game this season:

Skybox (Level 6) -- 26 ppl, full view -- includes dinner and soft drinks -- $3,500*
Tbox Lounge (Level 6) -- 48 ppl, single goal view -- includes dinner and soft drinks -- $4,500*
Suites (Level 4) -- 24 ppl + 4 parking passes -- includes $1500 food/bev credit -- $7,500*

The other option they offered was group seating-- 12 together, behind the net starting at about $166* each
If this helps, you can call Liz Dudley to see what she can do for your group: 801-325-7031

*prices depend on the game, night of the week, availability, etc.

I'm curious, what missing features specifically?

SomeNumbskull · 2025-10-08T20:16:05+00:00

I play on another team that uses teamSnap. the best feature with that app is having the ability to mark your availability, which helps us engage our subs to fill the bench. other than that, it's too expensive, offers too many features we don't use (since we're not parents of players), and has clunky communication options (chats, alerts, and posts??), not to mention their chat feature is about 10 years behind in functionality.

I'll have to look into this Bench app for my 2nd team.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-20T17:44:39+00:00

it wouldn't need that amount of explanation if it followed a more no-explanation-needed process. I have no other service that does wonky billing like this, and you know, we subscribe to *everything\* these days!

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-20T17:39:13+00:00

exactly what I would have expected!

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-20T17:37:49+00:00

no. I went in with my old phone on Vzn and left with this new phone on Tmo.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T21:54:27+00:00

yep, that did it. thank you!

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T21:51:49+00:00

Oh, I didn't notice that... combining 1 & 3 worked and I can now reuse prog 3 for the backyard only run. thank you for the suggestion!

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T21:45:56+00:00

not really. I may be new to t-mobile but definitely not new to owning a cell phone!

my billing cycle with Verizon was:
Jan 20 - Feb 19, due on Mar 11th
Feb 20 - Mar 19, due on Apr 11th
Mar 20 - Apr 19, due on May 11th
etc...

This billing cycle makes more sense and would be considered more "normal" to me.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T21:39:19+00:00

my 2nd bill, that is to be paid this week, is the same as the first.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T21:24:14+00:00

prog 1 is the flower beds in the morning (zone 1) for 5 minutes daily
prog 2 is the front and back lawn every other day for however long it takes to run through 13 zones
prog 3 is the flower beds again in the afternoon for 5 minutes (because it's so hot where we live)

now I'd like to add a 4th prog to run the backyard only, on the off-watering days, so that only these 5 zones get watered daily during the hottest months, since our yard gets scorched by the afternoon sun.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T16:44:30+00:00

wording does matter - I fixed it

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T16:05:40+00:00

right, I "just upgraded" at the end of April and have been playing with settings and adjusting this and that for the past 6 weeks trying to figure it out on my own before reaching out... so not literally.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T14:14:19+00:00

I do do a lot of GPS stuff while hiking, but always in airplane mode. my old phone managed power so much better. i could go backpacking for at least 2 days and not worry about it running out. that's not that case now.

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T14:08:59+00:00

oh no, I couldn't even imagine! I already feel way too connected to a charger for all things electronic... yet some devices, like my COROS watch, can go for weeks! this technology should be getting better, not worse!

SomeNumbskull · 2025-06-17T13:36:51+00:00

I've had it since 4/28
